Both Ends YUK

Here's another medical story about good 'ol Mr. Wilson involving BOTH ENDS. I feel sorry for Trixie as much as I do for Wilson on this one. Both dogs sleep in "The Cage" at night as this is their venue to feel safe from the night's creepy sounds and mysterious shadows. My wife is the one who opens the cage in the morning only to release the hungry lions who have been waiting patiently for 9 hours, to eat again. One morning, only one dog made the sonic speed exit out of the starting gate... it was Trixie. One could not tell if she was running for something or running from something... she looked very worried. Wilson was still in the cage, ut oh ........shall I say "both ends were fully activated" and working overtime. At that time I was invited to come into the kitchen and witness the poor thing having the worst morning of his life and to discuss what in the heck to do with him. Should we bring him to the hospital?.. she said... I said...I'm not a vet, but I can make an executive decision when it comes to dehydrating...... fast forward-------> About 24 hours later Wilson returned with medicine and instructions. Yes he stayed over night....CHA CHING!! think it took a few days of him eating cooked rice to return back to normal. Still the vet could not figure out what caused Wilson to turn inside-out, except that it was probably a stomach virus.... no kidding!!
The saddest thing was that Trixie would not go near Wilson for about 4 days after the blow-out. All she would do is growl and turn her back toward him in complete disgust. No sympathy from Trixie....she wanted nothing to do with her sick brother, who was exploding like Mount Vesuvius.
